Other collecting interests are Polynesian art, particularly the works of Hawaii's John Kelly and Tahiti's Jacques Boullaire, old postcards and mutoscope pin-up cards. Pictured is the Honolulu Bat Cave where the reading, musing, collecting and Net54ing takes place.
![]() Passions include listening to '20's and '30's jazz whenever I can, studying karate at Shihan Bobby Lowe's Kyokushin dojo (green belt for those who are wondering), and traveling the wide world with the bride.

include attending every high banked dirt racing track my son and I can find. The dirt is alot like cardboard...I can't seem to function well without a constant feed of either. Other than that, my family...the best addiction of all!

A friend got me into bass fishing about 10 years ago. For 3 of those years I competed in small tournaments. I fish for about any species here in Ohio, but enjoy the aspects of bass fishing the most.

A former symphony violinist, I'm finishing my twentieth year of conducting and teaching orchestra.
When my younger child went off to college, five years ago, I returned to an earlier preoccupation - tournament tennis. It's a seven-day-a-week way of life, and has led to a national ranking in 60-and-over singles. My wife and I travel quite a bit (Australia and Israel this past year). I read baseball history, specializing in Jewish ballplayers. Soon I'll be retired and a grandpa. Right now, I feel like a teenager. Picture captions: 1) My brother and father watched me win a trophy, and 2) I played at my son's wedding. |

Illini- I had a piranha that lived for 15 years (1964-79). Is that considered old for a piranha? He had a red belly but don't know what kind he was.

I race cars, play tennis, and fondle women, BUT I have weekends off, and I am my own boss.
In addition to wasting countless billable hours on N54, I practice Bikram yoga 3-4x a week, write extensively on cards mostly for my boxing card web site and encyclopedia, collect Academy Awards tickets, and cook. Tomorrow I am playing hooky with some friends and catching the opening show of Star Trek. Live long and prosper!

Yes, that is long but not unheard of, I have 6 Red Belly's that are going on 13 years now. I am sure yours was probably a Red Belly, I am into the rarer breeds of them. I am into the Gold, and Purple ones...there are two different families of them.The Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus families...I am most proud of my Diamond Black Piranha, and of course my beloved Elongatus Piranha , he is the most aggressive of the species.

From seeing the above posts, it is no wonder I lose out on many wanted items!
For the last 25 years, I have been in charge of 140 softball umpires and 100 basketball referees. Started out as a "Summer job", but, as I am no longer a teacher or coach, it has become full-time. I assign over 13,000 games per year and work about 400 myself, which is my hobby income. Below is one of my favorite umpiring memories: umpiring a mens baseball league championship game at Wrigley Field. Even took the kids out of school for that treat. The boys spent the entire day in the dugout, running all over Wrigley. What a day to remember! That picture was taken 14 years ago, so Andrew, on the left, is graduating from the University of Illinois (like Dad) next weekend. Kyle, on the right, is a junior at Iowa. My father graduated from Northwestern, so we have a chunk of the Big Ten covered! I run baseball and basketball tournaments for youth in the Chicagoland area and also umpire slow pitch tournaments including Nationals, Worlds, and Super Worlds. Spend most of my money putting kids through college and wish I could travel more. Last edited by wrapperguy; 05-09-2009 at 10:23 AM. |
